Sky rail rainforest day trip 26th Feb

Today we have a trip organised to go on a cable car up into the rainforest and then travel back down by train.

The cable car took 40 mins to arrive at a village called Kuranda there we looked around and had a coffee.

Then looked around the wildlife park, watched an aborigine dance show, and tried to throw a boomerang. pete was good at it. I got it in the air but it didn't come back.

We also went on an army duck, that was amazing how it travels on land and in water.

then it took one and a half hours to travel back down on the train. Nice and relaxing.

Chill day 25th Feb

Today we are having a chilled day. 

We have totally chilled today. Just what we needed as it is far too hot.

We walked along the 4 mile beach, well not all the way.

Then we went and chilled by the pool for the rest of the day.

We then went to see the big fish called the grouper getting fed. 

Unfortunately he didn't appear. So we watched the sunset eating prawns etc.

It was a lovely day.

Port Douglas

Today we went on a yacht  to the great barrier reef.

It was a bit rough going, luckily I took my travel tablets.

We went to an island called the low isles.

There was only 10 of us on the island it was like paradise.

I know how Robinson Caruso felt.

We went snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef. It was lovely
